"So far, all we know is that it will be set in the present day and will be written by Steve Lightfoot and Angela LaManna. What we don't know is who will play Lisbeth Salander, the aforementioned girl with the dragon tattoo. And this will be a big deal, because previous screen adaptations of Larsson's books have made stars of whoever was cast as Salander. In 2009's Swedish adaptation, she was played by Noomi Rapace, who was nominated for a Bafta."
"Far and away the best pick for the role, Corrin shares a strange, otherworldly intensity with Salander. They are magnetic and unpredictable, and have a clear talent for challenging characters. They are also very obviously unafraid of playing characters so well known that they run the risk of lapsing into caricature; anyone who dares to play Diana, Princess of Wales will make mincemeat of Salander."
Sky announced an eight-part television remake of Stieg Larsson's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo set in the present day, written by Steve Lightfoot and Angela LaManna. Production is slated for spring and the series is being produced by Left Bank Pictures. The identity of Lisbeth Salander remains undisclosed, and casting that role is treated as pivotal given prior screen versions that launched careers. Past portrayals include Noomi Rapace (2009, Bafta-nominated), Rooney Mara (2011, Oscar-nominated) and Claire Foy (2018). Speculative recommendations highlight actors such as Emma Corrin and Jodie Comer for the role.
